Does the university participate in US Loans?

Through ongoing policy reviews based on requirements of the United States William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program, the University of Alberta has made a firm decision to discontinue participation in the Direct Loan Program. Note that the University of Alberta also does not participate in private lending programs (i.e. Sallie Mae) or Veterans’ Affairs G.I. Bill funding. University of Alberta students will not be eligible to receive funding through these programs.
